Los Angeles, October 9 - Filmmaker Christopher Nolan's upcoming most-anticipated film based on the development of the atomic bomb in World War II, has been titled Oppenheimer. In addition to it, Universal Studios and Syncopy have cast Cillian Murphy to play the title role, which is about J. Robert Oppenheimer who is known as the father of the atomic bomb. ## Nolan and Murphy are longtime collaborators. The duo previously worked together on "Batman Begins", "Inception" and "Dunkirk". This time, however, Murphy has been cast to play the lead for the first time in Nolan's film. Oppenheimer will also be Nolan's return to WWII after Dunkirk, which earned the director his first and only Academy Award nomination for Best Director.## The upcoming film, like previous Nolan films such as "Dunkirk" and "The Dark Knight", will be shot with IMAX cameras and it will start production early next year. Universal Pictures will make the $100 million film after winning the rights, beating the likes of Warner Bros., Paramount, and Sony. The studio will distribute the film theatrically worldwide and has set July 21, 2023, release date in North America for a minimum of 100 days in theaters. ## The film is described as "an IMAX-shot epic thriller that thrusts audiences into the pulse-pounding paradox of the enigmatic man who must risk destroying the world in order to save it". Oppenheimer will be written by Nolan, produced by Emma Thomas, Atlas Entertainment's Charles Roven, and Nolan. It is based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning book American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer, written by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin.## Nolan will also be reuniting with several other previous collaborators on this project, including producer Charles Roven, Nolan's Tenet, Dunkirk, and Interstellar director of photographer Hoyte Van Hoytema, Tenet editor Jennifer Lame, and Tenet composer Ludwig Göransson.## Stay tuned...

Box Office: James Bond 'No Time To Die' Takes The Best Start At BO For A Bond Movie

Los Angeles, October 8 - Daniel Craig's swan song James Bond "No Time To Die" is all set for a very good opening weekend at the domestic box office after taking the biggest start for a Bond film ever. The United Artist Releasing/MGM/Eon's film off to $6.3 million from Thursday box office previews that began at 4 p.m. ## The Thursday previews box office collection for "No Time To Die" is best for a Bond film, 19% ahead of Spectre's $5.25M, and also exceeds the preview nights of previous Daniel Craig 007 movies Skyfall ($4.6M off midnight shows) and Quantum of Solace ($2.5M off 8 p.m. showtimes).## "No Time To Die" Thursday previews are lower than the previews Hollywood pic "Shang-Chi" ($8.8M), "Venom 2" ($11.6M), "Black Widow" ($13.2M). However, the audience for Bond films is different from all these movies, as Bond is dependent on older adult audiences, and should they show up this weekend, the pic will over-index.## The 25th Bond has conservatively estimated to earn $55M-$60M in the opening domestic weekend, but exhibitors have set over $70M estimate for the film and over $150M worldwide for its second global weekend. ## The advance ticket sales for "No Time To Die" on Fandango already are ahead of Venom - Let There Be Carnage, and previous Bond films Spectre ($70.4M), Quantum of Solace ($67.5M), and Casino Royale ($40.8M). The overseas box office collection for the film is estimated to be around $150M to date. ## Stay tuned...
